Some basketball facility renderings

Sorry no locker room stuff.

Thanks. I'm champing at the bit, waiting for the facility to be built. It's safe to say that JC and Geno are eager as well.

 

[Brochacho]

Only problem I have is that I would like to see all of our championship banners hung up around the gym so the players know what type of player to build themselves into.

Are there segregated gyms for the chicks? Looks like only men's hoops nomenclature.

I hope so. I don't mean to come off as sexist, but I hate when UConn Men's and Women's basketball are combined into one entity. I can appreciate their success, but god almighty watching a womens basketball game....

 

[progrocks]

There should be. Save money by making it less fancy if you must, but there really needs to be a court for each.

 

[art4life]

I agree - there should be a court for the men & a court for the women.
Looking at it from the outside view, it almost looks like it could be set up that way.

Still, very sweet to finally see the wheels in motion on this thing getting created.
About damn time!

beautiful !

 

[Jaker]

hopefully there is a tutoring center

 

[uconnbill]

I would guess it would be similar to the Football facilities in terms of a one stop for everything from tutoring, to strength and conditioning and everything else you can think of

 

[auggie22]

what's up with the orange paint in the practice gym?

 

[Dogbreath2U]

good question.....it's awful....get rid of it.

 

[Palatine]

This is men's only. The women get an identical facility on the other side.

 

[Vuce]

Yeah if you look at one of the pics - across the way from one of the courts it says Uconn Men's Basketball. This is going to be a sweet facility because it will have both mens and womens hoops in one complex each with their own offices, courts, etc. Even their own rest rooms and showers!

 

[BlueMAB]

That trophy case in the first rendering is way too small.

Plan for the future, allow room for expansion, this isn't Rutgers.

 

[Dann]

the orange paint is stupid and i don't like how were using the UC logo. but who am i....

 

[Waquoit]

That's Nike Hyper Elite Platinum Orange and it's staying. Like it or lump it.
